  • Patent number: 10213215
    Abstract: A surgical method for forming a void in bone includes the steps of positioning a support member securely within an intramedullary canal of a bone; attaching a guide member having a longitudinal axis to the support member in a fixed and offset relation to the intramedullary canal; connecting a cutting member having a cutting head to the guide member in a slidable arrangement along the longitudinal axis of the guide member such that the cutting head faces a first bone segment; and cutting the first bone segment along the longitudinal axis of the guide member, thereby forming a first offset bone void.

  • Patent number: 9672758
    Abstract: A kit for replicating an implantable prosthetic devices includes a model implant, a geometric tool, and an insert. The model implant may include a first curved surface, and the first curved surface may include a first cutout formed. The geometric tool may include a second curved surface having a second cutout. The geometric configuration of the second cutout may be substantially identical to the geometric configuration of the first cutout of the model implant. The insert may be configured to be engaged with both the first cutout and the second cutout.

  • Patent number: 9149282
    Abstract: Systems and methods for shaping and filling offset bone voids during revision procedures of total knee replacements are disclosed. The systems disclosed herein generally include an intramedullary reamer, an offset driver, a cylindrical reaming tool, an offset reaming guide, and a conical reamer. An alternate embodiment of the system may also generally include an IM reamer, an offset driver, an offset broaching tool, and a second stage broaching tool. Yet another embodiment may generally include an elongate IM reamer, a cone reamer, a reamer guide shaft, a cone trial, a sizing template, a template guide, an offset lobe reamer, and offset lobe reamer retainer. Metaphyseal reconstruction devices and void filling cones can be used to fill the bone voids in conjunction with the systems and methods disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 8491587
    Abstract: An orthopaedic instrumentation having an intermediate piece that has an opening for receiving an intramedullary reference. The intermediate piece such as a tibial template or a cutting guide is located on the resected tibia or femur in a manner that it optimally covers the resected surface of the tibia or the femur. A bushing guide is provided for mounting on the intermediate piece. The bushing guide has a circular opening. An offset bushing is rotatably mounted in the opening in the bushing guide. A trigger flange is slidably mounted on the offset bushing. The trigger flange can slide back and forth relative to the offset bushing. An indicia is formed on the upper surface of trigger flange. The indicia when aligned with one of the indicia on the offset bushing body measures the offset of center of a bore in the trigger flange from center of the offset bushing. The offset bushing can rotate around its longitudinal axis in the opening in the bushing guide.
